License Plate detection (LPD) is very challenging and it plays an important role in the field of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Stickers or advertisements on the vehicle have become common nowadays and hence it has become difficult to identify the license plate of the vehicles. This paper proposes a method thatclassifies the input image to clean, medium or dirty based on the HOG features and applies adaptive threshold based on the type of image to detect the license plate region from other character candidate regions.
